  1. 1. Polymer gel dosimetry with MRI-readout for 3D dose verification - detector characteristics and clinical applications

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Author : Thi Guldhill; [2023]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Background & Purpose: Radiation therapy is an essential treatment for cancer patients with the ultimate goal to deliver radiation doses to the tumour with precision while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissues. Treatment verification is crucial to ensure the accuracy of radiation delivery, for instance by measuring the radiation dose distribution. READ MORE

  3. 2. Calibration and preparation of the data analysis of the DORN experiment on board the Chang'E 6 lunar mission.

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Íñigo de Loyola Chacartegui Rojo; [2023]
    Keywords : Radon; lunar mission; alpha spectrometry; space instrumentation; performance testing and validation;

    Abstract : As part of the first agreement between the French (CNES) and the Chinese (CNSA) space agencies in terms of space exploration, the DORN instrument will fly on board the Chinese Chang'E 6 mission in 2024. It aims to measure the amount of Radon escaping from the lunar soil to better understand what governs the concentration of this noble gas which contributes to the endogenous origin of the lunar exosphere.

  4. 3. Cosmic Dust Detection by the Solar Orbiter Using Machine Learning

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutet för rymdfysik, Uppsalaavdelningen

    Author : Joar Lönngren; Ludwig Tiston; [2023]
    Keywords : Machine Learning; Neural Network; Cosmic Dust; Solar Orbiter; Space Physics; Space Dust;

    Abstract : This project aims to investigate neural network systems as an effective tool for the in-space captured dust impact signal detection. Cosmic dust is the nanometre to micrometre fine-sized particles that exist in the interplanetary region. They originate from comets, asteroids, the planets and their moons and rings, or even the interstellar region. READ MORE

  5. 4. Data Reduction and Analysis with the MPRu instrument for Neutron Emission Spectroscopy at JET

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysik

    Author : Steven Hendrik Bijl; [2023]
    Keywords : Fusion; JET; MPRu;

    Abstract : This research project centres on advancing data analysis techniques using the Magnetic Proton Recoil Upgrade Neutron Spectrometer (MPRu) for neutron emission spectroscopy during the deuterium tritium experimental campaign (DTE2) at the Joint European Torus (JET). The study aimed to address three pivotal questions, each with implications for optimizing data accuracy, quality, and utility. READ MORE

  6. 5. Pulse Shape Analysis of Si Detector Signals from Fission Fragments using the LOHENGRIN Spectrometer

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysik

    Author : Dimitrios Papaioannou; [2023]
    Keywords : plasma delay time; PDT; pulse shape analysis; waveform; LOHENGRIN; nuclear; fission;

    Abstract : Nuclear physics experiments typically involve the collection and analysis of detector signals produced by the interaction of subatomic particles with matter to deduce various quantities. When heavy ions are involved, Si Detector signals are distorted by the formation of a plasma-like cloud from the interaction between the heavy ions and the detector material. READ MORE
